Geoff?
Where did the Geoff thing come from? 24.8.4.217 22:04, November 24, 2011 (UTC)
- I believe that's from A Christmas Carol, where the Eleventh Doctor alleged his name was Geoff (or Jeff?). It's a fairly offhand joke, so who knows if that really "counts". -- Tybort (talk page) 22:14, November 24, 2011 (UTC)
The DVD subtitles spell it "Jeff". Of course, they're not infallible, but in the absence of another source I think we can go with that spelling. —Josiah Rowe ☎ 01:29, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
- Agreed. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 02:45, January 20, 2013 (UTC)
